Contrary to popular belief a great jab is not the deciding factor in beating Trinidad. Not getting hit by him is. Both Oscar and Hopkins used...
I know and that's just it, he just came off a loss hasn't ever done shit and here he is again fighting on a PPV undercard that will get televised....
I mean seriously, I just read he's supposed to be fighting Ouma on the Hopkins-Wright undercard. I mean, correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Smith...
That isn't what he used to claim on the HBO telecasts whenever it was brought up. He always said, something like "Ali did the ropeadope, and I was...
Exactly. Now ask yourself this: Why did Tito land almost zero punches against Wright yet Taylor landed dozens per rd? Is it because JT is such a...
Roy doesn't stop playing around. If his opponent let's him, he'll play it safe and play the whole fight. It'd be a decision victory for him.
Agree totally. None of them have the style to deal with his power which is quite simply off the charts. His technical skill is also underrated.
OMG! :eeeek: I can't believe you picked Shane. It's been a long time coming, but your hate seems to have subsided.
Oh, I'm not done, we have to break this down. Now the only people who beat Tito either had great footwork or great defense, Hopkins had both not...
OMG! I can't believe the incompetence here. You people actually think Taylor would have a chance against Tito? If Tito came out of retirement...
In about 4 yrs it'll be a rest of our lives dry spell.
Factor in non-worthy affairs like Floyd-DLH and JT-Spinks and the dry spell is even longer.
Yeah, but you should have heard RJJ crying like a bitch on the btalk interview. He was siteing Hanshaw's record saying shit like, "why should I...
I think so too and would also like to see Cal beat the shit out of that poser JT. The only problem is Cal will have everyone convinced that he...
Here's what I find funny. In the fights where I thought Spinks actually won and was much more effective (Mayorga, Karmazin) he received alot of...
Well that too. But anyone who tries to argue that Karmazin won (which many have done) need only look at the fact that he didn't throw shit for 7...
It only appeared that way. Unlike Taylor, Mayorga was actually pressing Spinks, coming forward and throwing haymakers. Spinks would slip, counter,...
Very good post, and a good point. The answer is no, you can't change the rules because somebody has no balls and takes advantage of them, well...
Yeah, but if you had heard Roy talking his way out of that fight you'd have thought Hanshaw was superman or something. In fact giving the outright...
Karmazin lost for the same reason that JT looked so bad. They were afraid to throw and didn't. Whether that's from fear of looking bad or getting...
It's true that Spinks was a stinker last night. I thought his fights against Mayorga and Karmazin was good showings but last night he just wasn't...
Either this is a joke or you're a freakin genius. :clap: Bravo Einstein, Bravo.
Cosign. I'll tell you what Taylor can do to impress me. Fight a top ten middleweight, I don't care if he takes number 10 on the list (long as the...
You miss me?
Thank you, thank you.
Shane Mosley. Statistically stacks right up there with all the best fighters ever. Great chin, stamina, heart, hand/foot speed, along with decent...
It's a tossup between HBO and Bob Arum. I've learned the error of my ways though, as now I feel in my heart that no fight, absolutely none, is...
Yeah, he's always fought like that, but lately he's been way more dispenseful of his high guard. Against Quartey, whom he probably thought he...
Yeah, especially in the Trinidad and Mosley fights when neither guy could lay a glove on him.
Forgive me for the blasphemy here but I honestly think Shane has a chance in this fight. He was just as strong and just as tough as Duran and the...
